    Great mix! The last 5 tracks were actually on my vaporwave playlist I listened to while making this piece, it's cool to see them all in a row like that in the most nostalgic part of the mix, so you totally nailed it.

      Oh man, dude, so great (and humbling) to see that this made its way to you. A thousand thank yous! 🙏 Like a lot of folks, I found your website after scanning the comments of the Remember Summer Days mix a few years ago and was instantly blown away. I mostly had no idea what vaporwave or “a e s t h e t i c” was at the time, so it was striking to see all these different small details (and fondnesses) of my childhood represented together in one place lol. It made a huge impression on me and made me feel a little less weird haha
      Thanks for doing what you do!

      Well, most of this kind of music doesn’t really trigger a clear memory for me… but the feeling of being up extra late on the night of a special occasion, tired and worn out while the adults talk and laugh together. Or sitting in the back seat(of our ‘84 Malibu wagon) on a long road trip, almost asleep, music from the radio blending with the sound of the tires and the air over the car.
      This music can be tremendously comforting and relaxing.

      Before I hit my teenage years and became a countercultural youth group kid (which comes with nostalgia of its own haha), I remember completely embracing the pop culture and aesthetic around me as a ‘90s kid (born in ‘90). Hot pink, neon, palm trees, alternative music on the Edge, backwards hats, everything. I wanted to be like Mike. I drank the shit out of Surge, and occasionally got a free one courtesy of the “under the cap” games they ran back in the day. I watched the Olympics and Dave Letterman religiously. The whole nine yards, without any trace of self-consciousness.
      I say all that to say this: I’m not sure how different your and my experiences with this time period actually are. You embrace it for what it is and revel in it, because it completes you in some small way. It all tickles our brains in the same place. You should definitely feel welcome among those who were there :)

I grew up in the 2000's though in my early teens embraced and explored the culture of this time period (and the general 20th century). I like the simplicity of the 80's/90's and the originality it had in terms of ideas, art, history, and culture. I'm sure it was a hell of a time to be alive in back then, and I feel the ideas and influences of the period are still felt in some form today through many people, and will probably outlive most of us. That's the awesome power of the past.

    Not nostalgic, but this ever growing feeling that I feel when hearing these. Molina - hey kids (slowed 8d audio) is a good example. It reminds me of a past I never had and a future I’ll never experience. Kind of like walking in a cyberpunk city. It’s very unexplainable. Windows96 hazy trip is another good example. It reminds me of a white factory making paper, and windmills with google translate in the background never to be used. You never know if you’ll leave the place, or if you will stay there forever. I am sure many people experience this with me. It’s odd.

      Thanks! It works on two levels in a way. Vaporwave is a genre of sampled music that had its heyday about several years ago; it used samples of old 80s-90s funk and smooth jazz (mostly slowing them) to evoke an exaggerated sense of nostalgia and familiarity in generations mostly too young to have remembered the original works. But now, the people who listened to vaporwave when it was most popular now have a sense of real nostalgia for the days when they first listened to vaporwave and reveled in that uncanny false nostalgia
